Transmigrated as a Ghost-Chapter 689 Reunions and a New Face
Chapter 689 Reunions and a New Face
Hearing his name being called out Marcus turned around towards the source of the voice with a smile already on his face.
He had recognized the voice the moment they began speaking and was happy to see Jarek, the husband of the guild master and the man he had fought the boss monster with.
“It is good to see you as well Jarek, and in good health.” Marcus said as he beckoned his friend over.
Alaric for his part who was sitting next to Marcus looked up from his book curiously at the well-toned fairly hansom man approaching them.
Taking a seat across from Marcus, Jarek was practically beaming, and it was clear he was also quite ecstatic about their reunion.
“So, I assume that Dahlia got my letter and then sent you to get me?”
“Yes, she did, just a few minutes ago, and I came out immediately to find you. It has been nearly two years since you were last here, and we both want to greet you. And to that end would you mind coming with me to the guild master’s office?”
Nodding his head happily, Marcus agreed to Jarek’s proposal and closed the book he was reading before turning to Alaric.
“Go ahead and put up your reading materials for now. I am going to introduce you to a few friends I made here last time I was in town.”
Doing as Marcus said Alaric got up from his chair gave Jarek a slight bow and then went to put away what he had been reading.
“That kid is new; I believe last time you brought your little sister. Though judging by his appearance, I would say he is a half elf. A cousin or other extended family member then?” Jarek asked, wanting to know Marcus’ relation to Alaric.
“Oh no, we are not related. He is the son of a friend and quite close to Lilia if you catch my drift. He recently saw just how strong my little sister is and wanted me to help him get strong enough to stand next to her. So, I am helping to train him up.” Marcus explained.
“I see, that is a bit unusual, but that is just how you are I suppose. Oh, but I also have someone that I really want to introduce you to.” Jarek said with the widest grin Marcus had ever seen him wear.𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m
Now he was curious about who Jarek was going to present to him.
But before he could really think about it, Alaric came back, and Marcus deiced to get his introduction underway first.
“Jarek this here is as I said earlier the son of a friend of mien and a close friend of my little sister Lilia, Alaric Skalbeck.” Marcus said as he motioned towards the young half elf boy.
Alaric then bowed and also introduced himself, after which Jarek quickly did the same.
“Now let us go head and head on up. My wife- I mean the guild master is looking forward to seeing you again.”
“Understood I just need to inform my maid who is gathering materials for me that I am leaving.” Marcus said before quickly going to tell Clara what was going on and to keep gathering information while he was gone.
Jarek then led them out of the guild’s library and up to the guild master’s office where Dahlia was waiting.
When they arrived at her door, they heard what sounded like a loud crash and then a scream.
For Marcus and Alaric, they immediately began to tense up and prepared for some sort of situation, but Jarek just sighed, and under his breath said, “Looks like she is throwing another tantrum.”
As he opened the door Marcus and Alaric looked inside and saw that the office was in disarray. With papers scattered about and on one wall there was a splattering of some sort of mushy food on the wall.
Standing in front of her desk, Dahlia had her back to them and was rocking herself back and forth.
Also, the sound of wailing was coming from somewhere in front of her, and Marcus immediately caught on to what was going on.
Turning around when she sensed that Jarek had returned, Marcus and Alaric saw that there was a baby girl currently nestled in Dahlia’s arms and crying loudly.
“Oh, thank the great spirits you are here Jarek. When I tired feeding her, she started throwing a fit and launched her food against the wall. Would you please take her for a few minutes? She always calms down faster with you.” Dahlia said with a pleading look in her eyes.
Swiftly moving over to his wife, Jarek took his daughter up in his arms and began rocking her back in forth while talking to her in a soothing voice. And quickly her loud wailing began to settle down a bit.
Once her husband had taken their daughter away to another room, Dahlia turned towards Marcus and Alaric and smiled, even though she looked thoroughly exhausted.
“It is good to see you again Dahlia, and I am glad that your child was born quite healthy by the looks of things.”
“Yes, well sometimes she is a little too healthy if you get what I mean.” Dahlia said as she motioned her head towards the food splattered on the wall. “Oh, and it is great to see you as well. Ah, and who might this be with you?”
Marcus then went through another round of introductions with Alaric and Dahlia, and by the time they were done Jarek came in with his daughter who had calmed down.
“You are a life saver dear. I do not know what I would do without you.” Dahlia said seeing their daughter no longer screaming.
Jarek then set her down in her seat where a plate that was once filled with food was.
“Irene, I would like you to meet our daughter Ange.” Jarek said as he turned her towards Marcus.
Getting a good look at her, Marcus could see that she had the same eyes as Jarek and that her hair was a light chestnut color that seemed to be a mix between her parents.
When she caught a look at Marcus she began giggling and reached her hands out towards him.𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄o𝐦
Frankly this was not the reaction he had been expecting, since he figured that she would somehow have an awareness about him begin a ghost. But she seemed very pleased to see him.
“Well, this is a surprise. She typically does not warm up to people that quickly.” Dahlia said with a look of exasperation.
After that they the two parents began telling Marcus all about their daughter, and he nodded along while smiling and acting impressed.
“Ah, look at the time. We have already taken up more than an hour. Your letter said that you had some things you wanted to discuss with me, right?” Dahlia asked when she realized how long she and Jarek had been talking about their daughter.
“Yes, I do. Mostly I just wanted to introduce you to Alaric and let you know he was under my care and to look out for him. But I was also hoping that you might be able to tell me about anything notable I should look out for that has changed since the last time I was here. I already found out that the dungeon’s configuration is different and wondered if there was anything else I show know about?”
